“A smart, arousing, spirited escapade
that is graced with a gentle mystery, a vulnerable,
resilient heroine, and a worthy, wounded hero
and served up with empathy and a humorous flair.”
—Library Journal on Burning Up
“[A] fast-paced, charming romance
with plenty of heat and cool dialogue.”
—RT Book Reviews on Burning Up
“A sexy, feel-good contemporary romance…
Palpable escalating sexual tension between the pair,
a dangerous criminal on the loose and a cast of
well-developed secondary characters make this a winner.”
—Publishers Weekly on Bending the Rules
“Snappy and sexy… Upbeat and fun, with a touch of danger
and passion, this is a great summer read.”
—RT Book Reviews on Coming Undone
“Lovers of romance, passion and laughs
should go all in for this one.”
—Publishers Weekly on Just for Kicks
“Andersen again injects magic into a story that would be
clichéd in another’s hands, delivering warm, vulnerable
characters in a touching yet suspenseful read.”
—Publishers Weekly on Skintight, starred review
“A classic plot line receives a fresh, fun treatment…
Well-developed secondary characters add depth to this
zesty novel, placing it a level beyond most of its competition.”
—Publishers Weekly on Hot & Bothered
